Describes an interactive software system (implemented in IBM interactive FORTRAN) which carries out data analyses, parameter estimation, and process generation. Includes discussion of the four system modules (data preparation; selecting process for goodness-of-fit testing; goodness-of-fit calculations/reports; process generation) and educational…

Describes the use and impact of process design simulators in process design courses. Discusses topics covered, texts used, computer design simulations, and how they are integrated into the process survey course as well as in plant design projects. (JM)

A review of the grading practices of various departments in the Western Australian Institute of Technology is the topic of this paper. The study was initiated in 1969, when an examination of scores given by various departments revealed a large year-to-year fluctuation. It was noted that some departments consistently graded higher than others. A…

Described is a computer program for the sizing of subsonic and supersonic fighters which has been adapted for use in an aerospace engineering design course. Following a description of the program, an evaluation of its use in the university is presented. It is concluded that computer programs for the conceptual design of aerospace vehicles can play…
